Discover your future in healthcare – February 10-19

January 15, 2021 — 

Do you have a passion for science and an interest in helping others? If so, you may want to consider a career in the field of healthcare. 

Most of us are familiar with a few of the most well-known healthcare occupations. After all, we’ve likely visited a doctor for a cold, been to the dentist office for a routine cleaning with the dental hygienist, saw a physiotherapist for a sports injury, or observed a nurse in action caring for a loved one. However, many of us would be surprised to learn that there are many different occupations in the field of healthcare — more than we may have ever imagined!

Attend one or more of the Discover Your Future in Healthcare sessions and discover the many healthcare options available for you! 

Career Services will be hosting more than 15 sessions highlighting a variety of healthcare occupations including:

  • Health Researcher
  • Psychiatric Nurse 
  • Genetic Counsellor
  • Physician Assistant
  • Physiotherapist
  • Midwife
  • Respiratory Therapist
  • Veterinarian
  • Nurse and Nurse Practitioner
  • Physician
  • Dentist
  • Prosthetist and Orthotist
  • Pharmacist
  • Dental Hygienist
  • Dietitian
  • Occupational Therapist

Each session in the series offers the chance to learn first-hand about the occupation and will feature a professional (or two) from the field who will speak about their experiences in the role. Admissions and academic program information will also be highlighted.

All sessions will be virtual.  Register in advance on careerCONNECT to reserve your spot today!
